Here’s some predictions I’m making: Jack Dongarra’s efforts to highlight the low efficiency of the HPCG benchmark as an issue will influence the next generation of supercomputer architectures to optimize for sparse matrix computations. I presented a keynote for Sun at Supercomputing 2003 in Phoenix Arizona and included the slide shown below.

Was there some other program consuming CPU, like a misbehaving Ubuntu service that wasn't in CentOS? The broken Java stacks turned out to be beneficial: They helped group together the os::javaTimeMillis() calls which otherwise might have have been scattered on top of different Java code paths, appearing as thin stacks everywhere.

If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve played around with using AI tools like ChatGPT or GitHub Copilot to write code for you. So far I’ve read a gazillion blog posts about people’s experiences with these AI coding assistance tools. or “ha look how incompetent it is … it couldn’t even get my simple question right!”

The Programmatically Interpretable Reinforcement Learning paper that we looked at last time out contained this passing comment coupled with a link to today’s paper choice: It is known from prior work that such [functional] languages offer natural advantages in program synthesis. That certainly caught my interest. High-level approach.

A friend called out to me a peculiar feature of a conference Program Committee they were serving on: that it was part of the PC’s role to keep a look out for strong minority/female speakers and encourage them to submit to the open CFP. Equal opportunity must be present at each step in the funnel for it to be truly achieved.

As an engineer on a browser team, I'm privy to the blow-by-blow of various performance projects, benchmark fire drills, and the ways performance marketing (deeply) impacts engineering priorities. With each team, benchmarks lost are understood as bugs. Provides support for "unread counts", e.g. for email and chat programs.

Most sites, even those that aspire to be "lived in", feature short median sessions, which means we can't actually justify much in the way of up-front code, and first impressions always matter. Front-end developers are cursed to program the Devil's computer. Those folks may not find the next couple of years to their liking.

Introduction: In December 2017, my colleague Damon McDougall (now at AMD) asked for help in porting the fused multiply-add example code from a Colfax report ( [link] ) to the Xeon Phi x200 (Knights Landing) processors here at TACC. Most of the details of the Xeon Phi x200 series presented here are from the Intel-authored paper [link].).
